About this sandwich

This cranberry breakfast sandwich doesn’t have to be just for breakfast – it makes a good lunch option too! These fresh Fall ingredients are super simple yet still provide a flavor blast – freshly made sourdough bread from the farm, kale, pasture-raised eggs and homemade cranberry sauce.

The cranberry sauce is the real winner for me here. It’s naturally sweetened with honey (or pure maple syrup) and freshly squeezed orange juice. And the best part is it comes together in just about 10 minutes. You’ll be sure to have leftovers that can stored in the fridge for up to two weeks.

Kitchen essentials
  • A small nonstick pan
  • A small saucepan
  • A spatula
Substitutions
  • Raw local honey: can be substituted for equal parts pure maple syrup.
  • Sourdough bread: you can use any bread of your choice. I prefer sourdough bread because the unique fermentation process makes the bread more nutritious and easily digestible.

Ingredients

  • 2 slices of sourdough bread

  • 2 kale leaves

  • 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil (and more for the bread, optional)

  • 2 eggs

  • Cranberry sauce (yields about 1 cup)
  • 6 oz fresh cranberries

  • 1/4 cup honey or pure maple syrup

  • 1/4 cup water

  • 1/4 cup fresh orange juice

Directions

  • Prep the bread. You can choose to toast the bread or leave it as is. I spread a thin layer of extra virgin olive oil on mine and pan fried it for a few minutes until golden. Plate your bread and layer on a couple pieces of kale.
  • Make the cranberry sauce. In a small saucepan, add the cranberries, honey and water. Bring to a boil on medium-high heat then reduce heat to medium-low to simmer. Cook until the cranberries have popped and most of the liquid has cooked off, stirring occasionally. I like to leave some liquid because it will thicken more as it cools. This takes about 5-10 minutes. Once the sauce has thickened to your liking, take off the heat and stir in the orange juice. Allow to cool.
  • Fry the eggs. In a small pan on medium-low heat, coat lightly with olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add in the eggs. For this recipe, I suggest cooking them over hard. Use your spatula to break the yolk and cook on one side for 2-3 minutes. At this point I like to season with cracked black pepper. Flip and cook for a few more minutes on the other side. The eggs should feel firm all the way through.
  • Assemble the sandwich. Add your fried eggs on top of the kale then spread the cranberry sauce over the eggs. Add your last piece of bread and voila! Cut in half for easier eating. Enjoy!

Notes

  • This recipe makes one sandwich, but you will be left with extra cranberry sauce. The nutrition label is based on using about 1/4 cup of cranberry sauce.
  • Store leftover cranberry sauce in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
